The Jamestown Arts Center (JAC) presents a poetry reading of local poet Robert Goode’s work on Sunday, June 22nd from 4-6pm. Robert, a long-time resident of Jamestown and an individual with cerebral palsy, has written poetry for over 20 years as a way to express himself both vocally and figuratively. The encouragement of friends and family has led Rob to release his poetry into the hands of Jamestown community members who will read it during a public performance at the JAC. The work ranges from semi-autobiographical to current events and Jamestown history.
Readers include:
Betsey Outerbridge
Kate Petrie
Mary Wright
Matt Bolles
Robert will also read some of the work himself.
